Subjective Study on Listener Envelopment Using Hybrid Room Acoustics Simulation and Higher Order Ambisonics Reproduction

ثبت نشده
چکیده

In concert hall acoustics, the spatial character of a sound field has been understood as important for quite some time. Reichardt and Schmidt performed initial studies on the perception of directional reflections and reverberation1. Identifying lateral reflections as important, Reichardt and Lehmann proposed a metric, Room Impression Index (R), to predict subjective room impression, mainly in terms of spaciousness and liveliness2. Around the time of Reichardt’s first work, Marshall also introduced the concept of spatial responsiveness, and he concluded that a narrower hall cross-section created a higher sense of spatial and overall acoustic impression3.

Implementation and Perceptual Evaluation of a Simulation Method for Coupled Rooms in Higher Order Ambisonics

A fast and perceptively plausible method for rendering acoustic scenarios with moving sources and moving listeners is presented. The method is principally suited for application in dynamic and interactive evaluation environments (e.g., for hearing aid development), psycho-physics with adaptively changing the spatial configuration, or simulation and computer games. The simulation distinguishes b...

Localisation of Elevated Sources in Higher-Order Ambisonics

Increasing the order of ambisonic reproduction allows 3D sound fields to be reconstructed with improved resolution and enhanced localisation, at the expense of higher channel counts, increased broadcast bandwidth, and increased storage requirements. Due to the resolution of human hearing it is possible that lowerorder reproduction is sufficient for elevated sources in comparison to sources loca...

Comparison of Higher-Order Ambisonics, Vector- and Distance-Based Amplitude Panning using a hearing device beamformer

The main advantages and drawbacks of Higher Order Ambisonics (HOA) versus Vector-Based Amplitude Panning (VBAP) for 3D audio sound reproduction are well documented. However, few studies focused on the effect of 3D audio reproduction artifacts and errors on the behaviour of hearing devices. This study compares the effect of HOA, VBAP, and Distance-Based Amplitude Panning (DBAP) sound reproductio...

Display of Three-dimensional Virtual Acoustic Sound Fields for Human Listeners: Value of Discrete Multichannel Simulation

In contrast to two other multichannel sound-field synthesis techniques, Higher Order Ambisonics (HOA) and Wavefield Synthesis (WFS), Discrete Multichannel Simulation (DMS) has distinct advantages in the display of three-dimensional virtual acoustic sound fields for human listeners. In particular, it is the impact of listener head movements on reproduction fidelity that is the primary concern, a...

A Tangible User Interface for Playing Virtual Acoustics

In this thesis the development of a digital musical instrument (DMI) playing virtual architectural spaces in the manner of a musical instrument is presented. The structure of the instrument is based on the implementation of an Auditory Virtual Environment (AVE) approach. The AVE approach comprises a geometric room model enabling real-time acoustic modeling of rectangular room geometries and sup...
